    They saved something like 6.5M so they got a cheaper option in Moss and they also still have Chase Brown. They just franchise tagged Higgins plus Chase is about to get a fat contract, seems like a money move

    Pierce has value still. He can return kicks and if he can improve his reads could still be an every down back. Would wait to see if he's figuring things out in camp before selling him pennies on the dollar.

    I don't completely write off Pierce, I view Mixon as part of a rb committee.

    Rumors are that Justin Jefferson is pissed. Amazing if they could swing a trade for him

    There's only 1 football to go around.

    Mixon, Schultz, Dell, Nico.

    We don't need more DPS, we need more tanks and healers. NOOB!

    Yeah if you have the chance to get the best WR in football entering his prime to pair with CJ you do it. We'd be greatest show on turf Rams lite

    Who are the remaining top FAs? We need to sign one of the top guys to salvage this off-season

    I'm not sure I would've paid that. Especially considering I think Mixon is a better player for us at this point. But the Ravens have coveted him for years and he fits their scheme.

    I think Mixon is the CLEAR starter. Pierce is just the backup, not a tv by committee. I still haven’t seen any evidence that Pierce understands the zone scheme

    Yeah, I’d like a consistent 3rd receiver, but Nico and Tank as the 1 and 2 is more than good enough. Adding Jefferson would be a waste of resources

    This was THE most predictable move of the offseason

    Texans still haven't unloaded their bag yet.

    Safety was the biggest need on defense last year at the end of the season.

    Jalen Pitre can't cover....

    I have faith that the serviceable 3rd WR is already on our roster somewhere.

    Safety market hasn’t been hit hard yet either, could see this being the next move
